 ak> IMHO the final prediction of the current path is made on the base of a

   22,000 years with almost rock steady temperatures, save for the last, 
extreme 200 years, too short? What mathematical model are you basing that 
statement on?

   Well, there are data for much longer periods for you, covering more than 
500,000 years, and they say the exact same thing, but without putting it in 
perspective with human activities the same way as XKCD.

 ak> Besides, there are theories that the current warming
 ak> can cause a new ice period.

   Sponsored by the oil companies, no doubt...?  :(
